Also - for some reason (likely overrated gas motors) I have always found that a 2 hp continuous duty electric motor will do about the same work a 4 or even a 5 hp gas motor will deliver even at wide open throttle - and the gas motor won't live long at that load!
Ac Hacker - did you ever get back to work on plumbing up and instrumenting your unit?? You have a big following on this!
